Booked a staycation at 1801 First Luxury Inn a couple weeks ago – the perfect excuse to finally explore downtown Napa. Believe it or not, the boy and I steered clear of the wineries – our B&B was just a five-minute walk from all the restaurants and bars we wanted to explore, plus our room was equipped with a jetsetter tub and gas fireplace we aimed to take full advantage of.

So while I can't provide the most comprehensive guide, I do highly recommend y'all visit Ninebark (a new trendy restaurant with the most stunning decor, expertly made cocktails and farm-fresh food) and Zuzu (a long-established and locally beloved Spanish tapas restaurant). I don't know what it is about driving an hour north of San Francisco, but the produce just tastes infinitely fresher in Napa.
